Subpart A—Introduction

§ 801.101 Publication of procurement regulations. Prior to July 1, 1942, it was the practice of the War Department to publish procurement regulations in the form of Army Regulations, War Department Procurement Circulars, and otherwise. As of July 1, 1942, the present numbered series of procurement regulations was issued to replace all other procurement regulations in effect as of that date. As changes in or additions to these regulations become necessary, they are currently effected by the publication of revisions.

§ 801.102 Rescission of Army Regulations. The following Army Regulations have been rescinded: AR 5-50 AR 5-160 AR 5-100 AR 5-200 AR 5-140 AR 5-220

AR 5-240 AR 5-260 AR 5-300

AR 5-320 AR 5-340

AR 5-360

$801.103 Rescission of other regulations, instructions and directives. (a) Effective July 1, 1942, all War Department Procurement Circulars not theretofore rescinded, and the temporary series of procurement regulations with numbers followed by "T", have been rescinded.

(b) All regulations, instructions and directives inconsistent with these procurement regulations as originally issued under date of July 1, 1942, or with any revision thereof, shall be deemed rescinded as of July 1, 1942, or as of the date of such revision, as the case may be. $801.105a Reference to units the designation of which has since been changed, or which have been abolished and their functions transferred to other units. (a) From time to time, the designation of various units referred to in these regulations has been changed since the issuance of the particular regulation or revision in which they are referred to, or such units have been abolished and their functions transferred to other units. It has generally been found impractical to make an immediate revision of the regulations to reflect such changes. The appropriate changes, however, are made in these regulations (except in the case of direct quotations) as occasion arises to reprint pages for other reasons. In the meantime, references to any such units should be read as if these regulations had been amended in accordance with such changes.

(b) Among such changes, particular attention is directed to the following, affecting the units named in italics below:

(1) Services of Supply. Section I of General Orders No. 14, W. D., dated March 12, 1943, provides that "The name of Services of Supply is changed to Army Service Forces"; and ASF Circular No. 30, dated May 15, 1943, provides in part that "The services heretofore designated as 'supply services' will hereafter be known as 'technical services' ". (2) War Food Administration. Executive Order 9577, dated June 29, 1945, and effective at the close of business on June 30, 1945, terminated the War Food Administration, and transferred the functions, duties and powers of the War Food Administrator to the Secretary of Agriculture.

(3) Defense Plant Corporation; Metals Reserve Company; Rubber Reserve Company; Defense Supplies Corpora

By Joint Resolution of Congress (Public Law 109-79th Congress), approved June 30, 1945, and effective on July 1, 1945, Defense Plant Corporation, Metals Reserve Company, Rubber Reserve Company and Defense Supplies Corporation were dissolved, and their assets and liabilities were transferred to Reconstruction Finance Corporation, of which they had been subsidiaries.

(4) Production Division; Purchases Division. ASF Circular No. 329, dated August 31, 1945, provides in part that "Effective September 31, 1945, the Production and Purchases Division is established under the jurisdiction of the Director of Matériel to consist of the former Production Division and the former Purchases Division"; and the authority previously granted to the Director, Purchases Division, has been delegated to the Director, Production and Purchases Division (See § 801.107-6).

(5) Legal Branch, Office of the Director of Matériel. War Department Circular No. 273, dated September 10, 1945, establishes the Office of Procurement Judge Advocate, and prescribes his authority and duties; and Section III of ASF Circular No. 345, 1945, dated September 13, 1945, provides in part that "The staff of the Legal Branch, Office of the Director of Matériel, is transferred to the Office of the Procurement Judge Advocate, and the positions of Legal Assistant to the Director of Matériel, Chief, Legal Branch, Office of the Director of Matériel, and of Legal Adviser to the Readjustment and Renegotiation Divisions, and the Legal Branch, Office of the Director of Matériel, are abolished".
